I too had a J (literally) that I partly moved to Europe for. It didn't work out for us either. But in the end I am so glad for that, because I was able to make that place my very own. Without him.

I wish you all the very best life can offer you. And yes, it is ironic that you signed your paperwork the day before, but like we love to say in our home, "there is no such thing as coincidence." Looking forward to updates on how you're doing. Take care.
